It’s been 20 years since 50 Cent made his major label debut with Get Rich Or Die Tryin’. Although Fif is far more involved in his television efforts than music, he’s hinted at making a return to the booth. It appears that he might actually be coming through with new music soon, now that he’s cleared his Instagram page. Afterward, he shared a single post with a 24-hour countdown, captioning the post, “20 years later.” Unfortunately, he didn’t provide much else besides that but we’re certainly hoping it’s a sign that he has new music on the way.
The rapper’s teased new music since the beginning of the year. In January, he confirmed that he reunited with Dr. Dre for his upcoming music efforts. He explained Eminem reached out to him to confirm that the NWA producer was ready to cook up. “I got a text from [Eminem] that he had already spoke to Dre, and that Dre is in there and he got some crazy stuff for me to go hear,” he said. “This is my process: I’ll go make something, what I can find, the best music that I can put my hands on. And when I feel real good about it, I bring it to put pressure on Dre to offer me something.”
There’s evidently a huge demand for 50 Cent’s comeback. It’s been nearly 10 years since the release of Animal Ambition. However, he doubled down on his desire to release new music in February. “I get the attention that I want from music when I want it,” he told Billboard. “I just went out and toured 45 countries, and everywhere was sold out. That made me want to offer new music that I could integrate into everything now. I’ve done what I wanted to do in the [sales] capacity. I’ve sold over 35 million records. Not singles — albums.”
At this point, we have to wait and see what happens in the next 24 hours. Although it’s possible that he’s gearing up to release new music in the near future, he also has his plate full of a number of projects. Earlier this year, he confirmed that he struck a partnership deal with Fox to produce several projects including scripted dramas, comedies, and animated series. Maybe we could expect his upcoming album to align with one of his many TV shows. Check out 50 Cent’s post above.
